That IS an interesting thought. Some people do handle one better over the other... >>

It depends for me on the situation. When it's "life problems" I need positive reinforcement and encouragement cause I'll get emo and bitter and angry. e.e; But like, when I need to get chores done, or work done, scaring me a bit works better... c____c;

Yep. I like positive reinforcement. Compliments are always nice, but my main motivation is just knowing I managed to help someone out. Negative comments tend to make me sad or a bit annoyed, and I spend more time arguing against them than working.

I don't really know on this one. I'm not really in favor of either one. For some reason, possitive reinforcement makes me think of the person praising me as an idiot. I have a kind of low self esteem and am often my own worst critic. It seems only when I'm criticized that I really push myself.

On the other hand, when someone gives me negative critism I usually regard that person as just being a jackass, until theypoint out something that I realize is wrong, too. I usually strive to prove someone wrong when they insult my work.

That kind of thinking only works when you think their opinion is more important than yours. I'm just lucky that the worst critism I get is from myself. It kind of strives me to prove that I can do better. You know, when I'm not feeling lethargic and lazy.

More options

Well, personally if I'm being told positive reinforcement I just think that person's being a faggot.

I prefer if people tell me shit like "MAN THE FUCK UP, BITCH, FIX YOUR SHIT." and I do it, but then again, that's how we do it here, we fix our shit so we don't have someone calling us out on not fixing it.
